Before leaving the factory this rifle was Q.A. inspected and test fired using Air Arms pellets to check opera-
tion and final adjustment.
It was dispatched in a sealed purpose designed box with a contents label on the lid. Air Arms may not
be responsible for any damage to the contents or missing items if the box is not original, if it is damaged or
the seals are not intact.
Air Arms cannot be held responsible for damage or missing items due to transit damage, mishandling
or being tampered with after leaving the factory.
If this rifle is not received in the original box with the seals intact, please examine carefully for any
damage, missing tools or documentation.
In the first instance any problems or complaints regarding this product should be referred to the sup-
plier.
The air cylinder is a highly pressurised unit that must not be modified in any way. Serious personal
injury may result if this, and the advice below is not followed.
Do not pressurize the cylinder if there are any surface abrasions or dents. Contact Air Arms for ad-
vice.
Do not store the rifle in places with, or near sources of high temperature such as fires or boilers.
Do not attempt to dismantle when pressurised.
Do not pressurize beyond the stated filling pressure (see filling instruction section). Damage caused
by such action is not covered by the manufacturers warranty.
If compressed air is being used other than from a diving shop, the inside of the cylinder should be
inspected for corrosion at least annually. If in doubt contact Air Arms for advice.
In any event the cylinder should be inspected every two to three years depending upon usage.
Air Arms can provide this service at a reasonable cost.
To maintain this rifle in good working order it should be serviced annually by a competent gunsmith,
your supplier may be able to provide this service or contact air arms.
A reasonable amount of advice will be provided to enable the end user to service their own rifle,
however this is at the discretion of Air Arms and may not be given in all cases.
The velocity of this rifle has been set using Air Arms field pellets. If any other make or type of pel-
let is to be used the rifle must be re-tested with the pellet that is to be used, to ensure the muzzle energy is
within the limits determined by current legislation.
Due to the nature of hand pumps and their relative inefficiency in removing moisture from the com-
pressed air , the chances of corrosion damage to the cylinder and other internal components are increased.
Therefore the rifle should be regularly serviced and/or checked for any signs of damage by a compe-
tent gunsmith.
Air Arms recommend using a dry pack filter kit on any hand pumps used to fill our air rifles.
If accessories not manufactured by Air Arms are used on this rifle, Air Arms can not be held respon-
sible for any loss of performance. Contact your supplier or Air Arms for any advice on this matter.
Do not store this rifle in a damp place such as garden shed or garage.
Do not store this rifle in a plastic or PVC gun bag without first applying a surface corrosion inhibitor.
Always ensure the loading bolt is fully closed before firing.
